New Deal Cafe
OK, you never know what to expect when you host an open mic but how often does it involve an encore performance from a belly dancer? Shaharazad, visiting from New York, where she performs regularily, wowed the crowd. And that’s not to mention a jazz quartet from UMBC, fiddle player and songwriter John Roy Zat visiting from the Bay area, and Joey Campfire himself taking the rock and roll pratfall to close out his set.
Brewer’s Alley
Thanks so much for coming out on Monday. It was a real pleasure to play for you in one of the finest listening rooms in the region. Special thanks to Rod Deacey and Ron Goad for joining me on Outdoor In and to Todd Walker for the great sound.
Moyaone Market
Had a blast picking with Lynn Hollyfield, Chris and Bonnie Allis, and Sue. Hope to do this again later this Summer. Very laid back, fine crafts, food and beverages, at a beautiful spot near the river in Accokeek, MD.
Anne Arundel Community College Recital
My classical composition Bird on A Wire was premiered 5/16 at Anne Arundel Community College. Many thanks to Jean Canale (clarinet), Carol Burke (cello), and Melody Muselin (piano) for their hard work and wonderful performance. Also enjoyed the composition by Tobias Russell for cello and piano very much. Thanks to everyone for coming out on a Saturday afternoon. You’re awesome!
Linganore
Thanks to all who came; loved this venue. It was a beautiful evening outside on the patio. There were a couple of birds in the tent rafters. I noticed they sang on some songs and not on others. Maybe it was the key, I don’t know.

Great audience last night. Always such a cool place to play. What a pleasure to hear songwriter Linda McRae and her husband James. Great impromptu session of Rod Deacey reminiscing on the music scene in London in the 60’s …
Trilogy
Wonderful turnout for the grand opening! Thanks for letting me be part of the new tradition. Great guest appearances from Jordan Klein and Lucas Kelly. Friday evening chillin’ in ol’ West Annapolis with good friends, pretty nice.

It’s an honor to do this show, such a great cause, and such a great staff of volunteers. Larry Byrne was simply incredible on mandolin and Ali sang beautifully on Who Found Who. Thanks to everyone for coming out (Ern, Jen, Laurie, Erica, Jamie, Stevie, Tommy, Margie, Michelle, et al. )
